AS Roma vs Monza Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Will Monza be able to survive against Claudio Ranieri’s surging Roma?

AS Roma will look to capitalize on their superb run of form against bottom-of-the-table Monza in their upcoming match at the Serie A. Roma who have won four matches out of their last five and are on a great run. They are presently in 9th place with 37 points.

Roma’s sizzling form also carried forward at the recent Europa League play-off match against Porto. After playing a draw (1-1) against the Portuguese club in their first-leg match, Roma clinched the second leg (3-2) courtesy of a brace from Paulo Dybala and a solo goal from Niccolo Pisilli.

Now, Monza on the other hand have a completely different story. The club have won just two matches out of the 25 games they have played and are on 14 points. Off the pitch as well the club have had issues, especially with the selection of a manager.

Alessandro Nesta was sacked after the club’s loss (1-2) against Juventus. However, within seven weeks the former Italian central back was reinstated in his previous role. So there has been no shortage of drama in the Lombardy-based club.

Players to Watch

Paulo Dybala (AS Roma)

Paulo Dybala will be high on confidence against Monza after his recent performance against Porto. The Argentinian might not be the club’s highest goalscorer this season but has been instrumental in the club’s success.

Dybala has scored six goals for the club. On top of that, he has made a total of 603 passes with an accuracy of 87%. Paulo will surely be the most marked player in the game and Monza should not allow to lose sight of him for even a second.

Dany Mota (Monza)

Dany Mota has been a part of Monza right from the time they were in the second-division league (Serie B). In fact, he was the player who scored their first goal in the Serie A against Torino etching it as a memorable moment in the club’s history.

As such it’s not ironic that also he happens to be the player who can salvage something for the club and provide that much-needed respite to the Monza fans amidst the ongoing catastrophe. Mota has played 20 games this season in the Serie A and scored four goals. Despite the club suffering under immense duress the Portuguese forward has been spot-on with his passing racking up an accuracy of 77%.

Match Prediction

Probably one of the easiest matches to figure out in this situation. On one side you have a club who are reaching its peak performance level and on the other, you have another club that are pretty much looking at a certain relegation. However, Roma should not overlook their opponents and not show complacency as we all know that overconfidence can bring about the downfall of even the strongest.
